• Ensure that the flash unit is correctly locked to the Indirect Rotalux.
• The unit, the flash tube and accessories may become very hot during and after use! To
avoid injuries, handle with isolating cloth or wait until parts have cooled down.
• Even though we use fire retardant materials; the fabric should never get in contact with
the hot flash tube or the modelling lamp.
